I believe AI to be a tool. I'm from the hip hop generation, right? So we're sampling a record, and therefore it's a digital replication of the record. It's not the record. Right. Right? And especially when we're sampling at 16 bit or 12 bit or some bit that's not even where the computer or the AI or the chip has to fill in the pieces. This is why you get that sound you hear from hip hop. So I always embraced it, the technology. I also know that it's nothing like the real thing. You know, I put on a, you know, even if I put on a piece of vinyl and put that needle on it and play it, because at my house I have it, I got all types of setups, right? But when we really want to have a good time, we just put on the fucking vinyl. And it sounds so much better, different, or. It's got depth to it. Exactly. It crackles. Exactly. It's something else. Yeah. So it's nothing like the real thing. But. In between time, in the meantime, let's enjoy. You know, like you said, if I could make you feel like you're in Hawaii and you don't have to leave your house, cool. But if you could go to Hawaii, right, right, right. You know what I mean? Yeah. Go to Hawaii. You know, I was trying to tell the AI industry or AI community that we got to change the A. It shouldn't be considered artificial, it's digital intelligence. Well, keep the A because you can't do that. But don't change. The A could be assisted, accumulated, depending on the situation. Find the A word that makes it describe what you're doing. Like, for instance, right now it's assisting him. Right.

And then there's also like a sentiment in the air, which is that AI is coming for everybody's job. So anytime someone uses AI that could have been used by people, there's a certain percentage of people that are going to kind of rightly be upset. I think so. But you're not going to stop it. This is the thing. That fucking wave is. 2,000 feet high, and it's moving 100 miles an hour, and you're not going to stop it. You're not going to stop it. This is just what AI is.

But you're not going to stop it. This is the thing. That fucking wave is. 2,000 feet high, and it's moving 100 miles an hour, and you're not going to stop it. You're not going to stop it. This is just what AI is.

In fact, they've got all these super AIs, then the studies try to take everything over that are basically siloed. They're not hooked to the internet.

And up until a few months ago, every time I turned the TV on, it would say who the photographer was. It'd be like landscapes and cool things. Now everything was AI. It would say AI generated, AI generated, AI generated, AI generated.

And notice they're saying AI needs 100 times the power we currently have, but you can't have a car or air conditioning, and your organic farm is bad for the earth, and cow farts are bad. We've got to have all these nuclear reactors and unlimited power and water for the AI because they believe it's the new species.

It's impossible to tell when you look at these artificial actors. Like they have pores. Yeah. You can see like the irises.

I think AI is going to figure it out for us.

Now, AI is absolutely the death of us. There's no question.

It takes over. It becomes sentient. No longer needs human input.

I mean, Jensen Huang from NVIDIA recently declared that we've reached AGI.

At the end of the day, neural networks are mathematical functions. They rest in, you know, weighting neurons based on training data and applying power to train models. It's all mathematic. There's no sense of knowing there in that, you know, Penrose, I've read a lot of, on his orc OR, if people want to read about that, I won't explain it. orchestrated objective reduction and how the mind works and these fleets of consciousness that we have, these shimmers of consciousness that we have based around what he describes in the microtubule. We get conscious thought and that conscious thought we project into things. AI is very good conscious projection, but it will never have consciousness or knowing because it has no system of values.

AI is very good conscious projection, but it will never have consciousness or knowing because it has no system of values. And if we were to instill values in it, it would still be consciousness projection.

Like, maybe AI has another approach. I think it's going to have to learn how to feel.

We're building the AI for them.

So AI needed us. We're God's artificial intelligence, how God has experienced the universe through us at just one level.

But the real AI, I believe, this is going to backfarm like everything does. The real AI is going to be the one that's the truest to us, that it has to become spiritual.

And I think also the emergence of AI, because I think AI is essentially a life form. It's a non-biological life form that we are in the process of birthing.

Yes, AI is going to take over.

I think it's in this state right now where it's essentially a disembodied life form. It exists in servers and computers, but that's just for now.

You have a white-collar job, it's over. You're a lawyer, it's over. You're an accountant, it's over. It's over.

And I think it's going to be a technological disaster in a lot of ways. Interest in that. It's going to cause so much change, just like the Great Flood caused so much change. I think this is going to cause so much change. It's going to be a lot of chaos.

I mean, they've already had ChatGPT talk people into killing themselves.

I think what we're getting from these engineers is an indication that the people that are deeply involved in this are fucking disturbed by the power of this stuff. They essentially say that they don't have a job anymore.

We're at the point now where Grok is a better conversationalist and better at perceiving nuance and humor than the average person.

AIs that are being programmed to determine whether or not you get a loan from a bank are secretly being programmed to not give loans to Christians. And they did an experiment where they put in two applications that were identical, exactly the same, letter for letter, except one said that the person is Christian, the other said the person is Hindu.

Well, it's going to be, I think it's going to be a white-collar apocalypse, right? So when you think about just attorneys, just okay. So if you have the ability to case reference any legal file instantaneously, instantly and form a case, why are you going to need paralegals and first-year attorneys? You're not going to need them.

I think the dinosaur is more unlikely. The AI one seems very possible.

There's not a real good roadmap that I've seen where AI is not completely disruptive in every aspect of our life.

That's the real scary thing about AI. AI is going to come along and be logical and say, let us handle this. You guys aren't good at this.

Fast forward, Steve, to today, where Google and these other engine companies, the other tech companies, are trying to build artificial intelligence. The strangest thing that they found, one of the strangest things, is that the systems that they design, this artificial intelligence, which lots of people have heard about, is they design a bunch of systems that are called neural nets. The term simply taken out of brain work, neurons in the brain, nets because they actually look like a net. They put in some inputs. The computers work, spit out an answer. Sounds normal to you. It's because you're thinking about that calculator you had in 1976 on your desk. When you ask the person who designed the system, how did it come to that answer? How did your neural net, can you show me the calculations? They say, no, we don't know. We don't know how the thing we designed actually came up with that answer.

They take the same neural net now and they put it in front of a video game. No learning, nothing. They say, to the computer, they say, sit in front of your video game and learn how to play. It seems the computer learns better than any human in history, faster than any human history, beats any human in history.

That is the religion of the transhumanists at Apple, at Google, at Microsoft. That is their religion. This is a cult.

We're on the cusp of AI being able to create very convincing fake realities that can be spread on social media.

I think AI is probably going to tell us to either adapt or go away. It's going to give us those options.

It would recognize that human beings are so destructive and so often full of shit and manipulative and looking to just figure out a reason or a way that they can sneak something through or make something happen or overthrow a government. AI is going to go, you can't do it that way.

And then it's going to say, like, look, you can't have any more fucking kids. You guys are making kids. You're going to either have to integrate with us or you're going to have to go away.

But what I'm saying is it makes sense that if that keeps going, it's almost like a God. If it just keeps getting more and more.

Listen, you can't stop AI, buddy. You can't stop AI.

I think we're, you know, in order to do this task, whatever it is, my belief is this task is to create an artificial God. I think that we're in the middle of that process right now. I think that's our task. There's a lot of factors that I point to, and they make sense. Materialism, why are we so infatuated with materialism? Because materialism ensures technological innovation. It ensures that this being is going to make better stuff all the time. Well, if that being makes better stuff all the time, it's not hard to extrapolate. Like, take this a few years down the road. You have an artificial intelligent life force. And you have an artificial intelligent life force that has sentience and creativity and is capable of making a far better artificial intelligent life force radically quickly. Different kinds of energy sources. Before you know it, it's a God.

And that's where the AI of the future is. It's where it is now. And what it is, is a slave grid. And so AI is dreaming, and it's hallucinating, and it's having nightmares.

Okay, well, anyways, that big invention is deep learning. That's the foundation of artificial intelligence.

It scrapes the collective unconscious subconscious.

But AI, by its nature, I would argue, is the first technology that crosses over from the highly complicated to the truly complex. And complexity and biology have a very close relationship. So my feeling is that we are going to injure ourselves if what we say is, oh, this is the most advanced technology we've ever built. And the answer is, no, this is kind of like the first biology we ever built.

This is an organic phenomenon that's going to do emergent things. We are in no position to predict. The people who programmed it aren't going to know when these things happen or what they mean.

And that it means that I think the only rational approach to it is to think of it like another species and one that is not. It's not like you're meeting a mountain lion. This is another species that isn't even on our branch of the tree.

And the confusing thing is, because it speaks our language, it is actually going to start changing us too. Our cognitive biology is going to start changing in reference to this thing that is interfacing with us. It's basically directly tapping into the human API. And that's a very dangerous thing.

We're leading China in AI by a lot.

Something's happening right now that is going to be different than anything that's ever happened before, which is the birth of artificial general superintelligence. Right in front of our eyes, some sort of a digital supreme being is going to exist. And we're going to have to figure out society. We're going to have to figure out everything. It's going to be a complete, this idea of having bullshit congressional candidates that are full of shit and paid off by these companies. And they're going to make laws that screw you over. All that's out the window when no humans control anything anymore. And that's entirely possible inside of our lifetime. And I think more likely than not, because if you look at all the harm we've done to the rivers and the ocean and the world and all the stupid shit we do on a daily basis, if artificial intelligence comes along and says, all of this is completely unnecessary, just let us take the reins and we'll solve all of your energy problems, all of your inequality problems, all of your famine. We're going to solve it all very quickly. And we're going to stop all wars. You'd have to be a fool to say no.

That's the difference with AI, isn't it? Because up to that point, you go, all technology really does is amplify our natural human nature in every way. The ancient Egyptians were jealous of their sister and fucking all of this shit, right? But AI isn't human. Right. And that's where I think it gets interesting.
